A Correct answer
Explanation

An alien, in legal terms, is a person who is not a citizen of the country where they are living. While 'foreigner' is similar, 'alien' is the formal legal term. 'Nonnative' is broader (could apply to plants/animals), and 'stranger' refers to unfamiliarity, not legal status.
